Three Converse kicks get a Nike upgrade

The new Chuck Taylor All Star x Nike Flyknit collection for Spring-Summer 2017 marks the first time Converse incorporates Nike Flyknit technology in any of its sneakers—resulting in an innovative version of the iconic Chuck Taylor kicks.

Topnotch features blend ultimate comfort with style: a breathable Nike Flyknit upper, Nike Lunarlon sockliner and a sleek thermoplastic-polyurethane (TPU)-fused toe cap to keep feeling cool no matter how long you stay on your feet.

Before Michael Jordan started wearing the “swoosh,” the Converse Fastbreak was his shoe of choice during his playing years at the University of North Carolina and even in his first foray into pro basketball. Fans remember him wearing a pair at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.

But the shoe maintains its original design, making it a great throwback thing to wear.
